Description: Strong early childhood programs require more than dedicated staff—they require clear expectations, consistent accountability, effective leadership, and ongoing professional growth. This training equips early childhood leaders with practical strategies to manage staff performance in ways that strengthen teamwork, improve workplace culture, and support program quality.
Participants will learn how to establish clear job expectations, monitor employee performance through observations and evaluations, provide constructive feedback and coaching, address performance concerns professionally, and support employee growth through professional development opportunities. The course also explores effective ways to recognize and motivate employees while building a culture of accountability, consistency, and excellence.
By the end of this training, participants will be better prepared to lead high-performing teams that contribute to positive outcomes for children, families, and programs.
